There are different ways to lower your cholesterol. You should always talk with your family doctor because he/she will know best which changes in your overall life might help the most.
The following life style changes often help regulate cholesterol:
* regular physical activity
* reduce over all stress
* get regular and enough sleep
* avoid transfats, instead use fats with polyunsaturated fatty acids (salmon and other fish) or monounsaturated fatty acids (olive oil as example)
* increase the amount of dietary fibre
